If you've been using the default save template, I suggest you change that. Create a directory on your Kobo called books and then make your save template start with books/ and then whatever follows will be the format of the filenames. Mine is
Code:
books/{author} - {series} {series_index:0>2s|| - } {title}
This is updated in the Kobo Touch driver for calibre 8.

There is a program for Windows called Remove Empty Directories that can remove all of those empty directories. https://www.jonasjohn.de/red.htm
